然后我朋友说:“其实人们对残疾人的这种认识,更确切的说,人们对人类所固有的权利的这种认识,在国内是普遍现象。主要是因为国人在国内很少从根本上接受什么是人固有权利的教育。我们的公民教育中不崇尚这种教育,我们的教育不寻求灵魂的教育,太功利……美国的《独立宣言》中指出:“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed...” 这就是为什么残疾人在这里会觉得相对收到尊重的根本原因所在,因为无论人们多么不喜欢残疾这种现象,对残疾人固有的人的权利都会报以尊重,都会认为无论他们是谁,都没有资格剥夺这种权利。”
